Midland Red 2412 was on the 10a today (wasn't the 10 now all deckers?) and little orange bread van 2564 was looking lost on the 19.
Preserving a bit of West Midlands heritage with 1037 and 1849.

I think certain trips on the 10/19 do get operated by a solo or a dart as the deckers go off to do a school service

I saw the orange Sainsbury Solo on the 35 while waiting for the Parrys coach in Walsall.

They do sometimes appear but not regually :) Nice Spot ;) Mainly Versa's on the 891/2

Ashley

It's happening more regularly tbh Matt sorry to say. I noted at least three last week

OK thanks for that Ash :) I didn't realise they were appearing more regually

Ashley

Anything could appear on 890/1/2. It's mostly those vile Versa things. But VDL's and DAF's appear. Unusual workings would be Darts, B6's, Commanders, L113's or Citaro's or Pulsar's

I think it's typically anything that will do the 892 that only goes from Telford to Shifnal, but it is mainly Versas on 891/892. I think 890 gets anything now.
This is a personal appeal... For Pete's Sake just save the #!@?$&% Scania's - don't let them follow the Dennis Falcons!

There was an L113 on saturday

Ashley

That's a good spot then Nathan. Was two SB120's today so I'm told on 891/2

DD - 116 ? Not sure if this happens everyday as it turned to a 110 upon entering bull street

110/116 interwork Nathan. B9TL's are the everyday allocation. Only unusual sighting on the brum routes would be a B6BLE

On another note

35 branded E200 - 50
